Lighten your skin in citrus way

Submitted by Kavitha Thomas

Lemon has exfoliating properties: rub half a lemon on your face with a hint of sugar granules to remove dead cells and lighten a tan.

You can also rub on hyper-pigmented areas like elbows to lighten them. Mix with a little cucumber juice to make a natural astringent

Question Comments By: Anon
does this lighten your skin as in it makes it look whiter? and does it fade away, by meaning you have to apply it every day?

Tipking says: I would think that it is something you will need to re-apply

 
After shower Comments By: A
If you rub lemon juice on your skin after showering it does remove dead skin cells. Does lemon juice lighten african-american skin?

it works Comments By: Mimi
it should give u that burning feeling.. thats when you know its working. Dont go out in the sun while its on ur face, then it will literary burn ur face.
But other than that, its great!

 
bit harsh Comments By: anon
you are very much wrong when u say "that burning feeling means its working" any product used that gives u the tingling burning feeling means its irritating ur skin n plus lemons contain citric acid which irritate or give u an alergic reaction at the first time of use or over a period of time on sum people also ur skin is slightly acid - pH 5/6 n citric acid as a pH of 2/3 pretty harsh
 
how long? Comments By: anon
how long will it take? how many times must u apply it ?

PLEASE HELP ME!!! i have a tanned skin tone but my elbows are EXTREMELY dark....it almost looks like dirt or mock. Will applying lemon juice directly on it help or would i need to mix in something else so the acid done't damage my skin but help rid the dark markS???
 
it works Comments By: redlawyergurl
ive ben using for a week and my skin is sooo bright and pretty. Im about Gabrielle Unions complexion, real red undertones, I used lemons mixed with sugar to exfoliate and bring my skin tone more to be "reddish" or "red bone" like queen latifa, and i've achieved just that. Not that I wanta look like queen latifa or anything but becuase I just love the red in my complexion. The lemon juice worked w/in a week. As well as I exfoliate w/ a loofa and apply a lotion that's called skin beuatifying milk that supposedly maximizes for clearer brighter skin. hth!
